Try an interactive caving experience at GO Diving

Published

on

What is it like to scramble around in the pitch-black, finding your way forward through winding passageways lit only by the light on your helmet? Welcome to the world of caving – and you can try it first-hand at GO Diving at their interactive caving experience!

You will don kneepads and a helmet with LED light and then venture into the daunting cave system. Through a clever and convoluted design that takes you up and down as well as left and right, you will traverse some 30 metres of dark, narrow cave passageways before emerging back into daylight. Suitable for children and adults alike, this interactive experience is sure to be popular – and with four cameras inside the cave system linked into a TV mounted outside, your friends and family can see how you fare on your journey into the darkness.

Cave Diving Group members Mike and Robert Thomas will be on-hand to offer some advice, and explain how you can take this experience into the real world and get into dry caving and cave diving.

Keen to give it a go? The GO Diving Show will be taking place at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry from 22-24 February 2019. Get your tickets to GO Diving at www.godivingshow.com.

Voted No. 3 on the Top 10 Ultimate British Isles Bucket List by The Independent, these dives offer the closest marine mammal encounter available to divers in the UK.  Friendly and playful, respectful divers are often rewarded by incredible interaction with the Lundy Seals.

Easy Divers has been running guided dive trips to Lundy for nearly 10 years and offers dive equipment hire if required.  Trips depart from the stunning harbour town of Ilfracombe in North Devon and Dolphins are often seen during the boat passage.

In addition to diving, Ilfracombe is a great base from which to hike the South West Coast Path, dip into surfing at the UK’s first World Surf reserve, enjoy other water sports or head to Exmoor National Park.

DAN Introduces Continuing Education for Dive Professionals

Published

Divers Alert Network® (DAN®), the world’s leading dive safety organization, has launched a new program called Continuing Education for Dive Professionals. This free program focuses on risk mitigation and is now available to all dive professionals via DAN E-Learning. DAN expects this program will not only enhance divers’ safety but will also help reduce dive operators’ liability risk.

To encourage participation, DAN is offering discounted premiums on individual professional liability and group professional liability insurance to all DAN members who complete the e-learning, which can be done in about an hour.

Any DAN member who has completed the e-learning will be able to claim a discount of nearly 5% on their annual liability policy. This is in addition to the 5% discount that DAN members already receive. If you are on a group professional liability policy, your completion of the e-learning may count toward a discount on the group professional liability premium.

This year we partnered with Tec Clark to create the content of the program. In the future, we will combine Tec’s material with new material created by DAN.

Click here to learn more and access the e-learning.

To qualify for the discount, the e-learning must be completed before you renew your professional liability insurance policy. Refunds will not be given.

We hope you find this program educational and worthwhile. If you have any questions, or need assistance, please contact DAN at liabilityinsuance@dan.org.
